Evidence snapshot for Ahmedabad
Ahmedabad's evidence in the CONTEXT comes from two major initiatives. Parivartan, the Slum Networking Project, connected 8,703 households (~43,515 residents) across 41 slum communities to piped water, sewerage, drainage and other basic services by 2005, with an associated crude death rate decline from 6.9 to 3.7 per 1,000, using a four-partner cost-sharing model. SEWA, the world's largest informal-sector women's trade union founded in Ahmedabad in 1972, has grown to 3.7 million+ members across 20 Indian states, integrating organising with microfinance, insurance and training to raise member incomes and reduce domestic violence. The CONTEXT does not quantify SEWA's current membership or impacts specifically in Ahmedabad, only citywide or nationally.
